Relay for Life

Relay For Life is a fun-filled overnight event designed to celebrate survivorship and raise money for research and programs of the American Cancer Society. During the event, teams of people gather at schools, fairgrounds, or parks and take turns walking or running laps. Each team tries to keep at least one team member on the track at all times.
For general information, visit the ACS Relay for Life website.

Spirit of the Senses

PCDS is pleased to collaborate for a fifth season with the Phoenix-based Spirit of the Senses, a highly acclaimed local arts organization that provides a forum for creative dialogue and artistic expression. This year, Spirit of the Senses will bring a variety of world class researchers, artists, politicians, and more to our campus to share their knowledge and ideas as part of an evening lecture series. All members of the PCDS community and their families may attend these events free of charge; no reservations or tickets are necessary. PCDS families also will be given a discount to join the Spirit of the Senses organization, which hosts many additional events around the Valley each month.
